Brazil and Italy are already through to the semifinals of the Confederations Cup, but the matchup between the two teams highlight the action on Saturday. Brazil is a solid favorite for the contest at -1.5 goals. Brazil is -175 to win outright on the three-way result, while Italy checks in at +500.

The other game Wednesday is between Mexico and Japan. Both teams have been eliminated from semi-final contention. The game is a straight pick’em, and the teams are both +160 on the three-way result.

After demolishing Tahiti, 10-0, Spain will face more difficult competition on Sunday against Nigeria. Spain has not locked up a spot in the semi-finals just yet and are 1.5-goal favorites for the game. They are -400 on the three-way result.

Uruguay looks in strong position to advance having beaten Nigeria on Thursday and facing Tahiti. Uruguay is a massive 7.5-goal favorite for the game. But given Tahiti’s performance against Spain, no spread may be safe from the minnows from Oceania.
